4 bedroom bungalow for sale

A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase an exquisite and deceptively spacious three / four bedroom detached bungalow set in the idyllic village of Benhall. The bungalow has been extended creating a sociable living space and due to the multiple windows, glass panels and roof lanterns, allows a huge amount of natural light to flood in. There is cleverly designed storage throughout the bungalow, maximising the space, including a bespoke pantry in the utility room, custom-designed cupboards with shoe drawers in the rear lobby, and a fitted walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom.

The bungalow occupies an elevated position, and a particular selling feature is the delightfully low-maintenance rear garden with a wonderful courtyard and a detached, fully insulated and weatherboarded workshop which has internal and external power connected, and ample storage, which is ideal for a studio or workspace. The wraparound garden includes a greenhouse and raised beds ideal for vegetables or cut flowers.

To the front is a substantial garden with young apple trees and a driveway providing off-road parking for at least two cars. The bungalow is being sold with no onward chain, comes with gas central heating via a Worcester boiler with a belowground LPG tank in the garden, double-glazing throughout, and would make an ideal family home, with the potential for multi-generational living, or a perfect second home for a quiet costal escape.

A summary of the accommodation is as follows: front porch, spacious living room with gas fire and built-in book shelves, a study with fitted desk and shelving, an impressive master bedroom with bespoke walk-in wardrobes and a stylish refitted en-suite wet room, two further double bedrooms, stylish family bathroom, fourth large bedroom / office / craft room, substantial utility room with bespoke pantry cupboard, and a spectacular open plan kitchen / dining / garden room with bi-fold doors and roof lanterns.

The idyllic village of Benhall is just a short drive from the charming market town of Saxmundham which has a mainline train station to London Liverpool Street station via Ipswich. Amenities in Benhall include a primary school, popular social club and farm shop, whilst Saxmundham provides a large range of amenities including primary school and free school, social club, supermarkets, pubs and restaurants, and art galleries. The beautiful Suffolk Heritage Coast is within easy access - the coastal town of Aldeburgh is less than 15 minutes’ drive and offers a cinema, book shop, various delicatessens stocking local produce, and iconic fish and chip shops.

Many ‘must see’ places are just a short drive or train journey away, including the world-famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall, the seaside towns of Southwold and Dunwich, as well as nature reserves such as Havergate Island and Minsmere. Not too far away are the ancient castles at Orford and Framlingham, and golf courses galore.
